Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 4 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“When I first rang, it was not a convenient time, so I left my number …. Later the same day I received a call back. A survey was arranged and completed, a price agreed and the work scheduled. The work team arrived on time, they let me know what the plan and time scale would be each day. I would use this company again and will definitely recommend them”
“Excellent experience. Ben and his team were totally reliable and courteous. The weather this summer had been so challenging and after several attempts to start they finally did last week. Super job. All tidied up Highly recommend.”

Roofing isn't licensed, so anyone can set up - and it's a trade with more than its share of cowboys. A big re-roof must meet building regulations; CompetentRoofer (the Government-authorised NFRC scheme) registers roofers who can self-certify that, and vets and inspects them at least twice a year. Check they're on it before you hire.
Check the CompetentRoofer registerNever agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note. That is the classic roofing scam.
Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee, not a vague day rate.
Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
